Our very own Msgr Antero Sarmiento authored 2 books published by St. Paul Publication and it was launched March 31, 2012 at SJWP Center. One book is about discipleship and can be used by retreat/recollection masters and teachers of the Word of God. The other is about lectorship or how to make the reading of God's word come alive during Eucharistic Celebrations. Very Affordable and Highly Recommended!!!
Just in, it is official!!! His Most Rev Luis Antonio Tagle, Archbishop of Manila, will be the main celebrant of our Parish Eucharistic Celebration on May 1, 2012, 6PM at the Parish Church!!! Praise the Lord!!!
PALM SUNDAY (APRIL 1, 2012) This coming Sunday, we will commemorate the triumphant entry of the Lord Jesus on Jerusalem. This is traditionally done by having palms blessed during the Masses on this particular day. The blessed palms will be burned for the next Ash Wednesday. We reflect on this day about the dichotomy of things, on the one hand we rejoice in the coming of Jesus in our lives but somehow we fail him just like the people in Jerusalem at the time. They welcomed Him but in a few days they placed Him on the cross. We too do this as we fail to honor the Lord by our words and deeds. "Lord Jesus, come to us this day and may You continue to lead us all to deeper discipleship and that we might follow You more deeply, more nearly and more dearly from this day! This we pray with the intercession of mama Mary and St. Joseph, Amen!!!" |
